Creating fans of the brand to drive loyalty.
For those in a service, helpdesk or customer-facing role, helping to drive loyalty, retention and creating fans is essential for the business.

The programme also focuses on how to help the customer think ahead and create contact plans that build engagement and create a Trusted Advisor relationship that will enhance customer value.

Consulting to Add Value
Impact: Loyalty
Inspire, excite and educate customers about additional options, solutions or recommendations that you have identified that will add value to them and enhance their experience. Consult with them about their bigger goals or specific events to demonstrate you care and want to help.
Respect Customer Feedback
Impact: Loyalty; Advocacy
Recognise the key reasons we need customer feedback, and why it’s important to receive that feedback well to demonstrate respect and maximise the value of the feedback.
Making the Customer the Hero
Impact: Loyalty; Advocacy
Go beyond a single call or service interaction to understand how customers see the relationship with the brand. Play an appropriate role, as a service professional, at each stage, from understanding the backstory to supporting their journey and humanising the experience.
Asking for Referrals
Impact: Advocacy; New Customers
Understand the value of a referred customer. Ask for referrals at the right stage in the conversation, and in a natural way that promoted advocacy and builds trust. Structure referral requests that also add value to the customer.
